FridgeRepair.co.za is a free quote service for fridge repair and refrigeration in South Africa. Whether the kitchen fridge has gone warm, the chest freezer trips the power, a bottle cooler in the shop has stopped, a cold room won't hold temperature, or you need the right part or a cylinder of gas at a fair price, one request reaches the technicians and suppliers near you.

How it works

Fill in the job card at the bottom of the page: what needs fixing, building or supplying, the appliance and what it's doing wrong, how big a cold room is or how many items you need, and how to reach you. The fault finder sketches the appliance and points at the part a technician usually checks first. We send the request to technicians, contractors and suppliers who work in your area, and they quote you directly. You compare and decide. It costs you nothing.

Everything we take requests for

From a fridge that stopped cooling in a Centurion townhouse to a chest freezer humming loudly in a Soweto garage, a regas in Pinetown, a bottle cooler in a Bloemfontein spaza shop, a walk-in cold room for a butchery in Polokwane, a mobile cold room for a wedding in the Winelands, or a case of refrigerant for a technician in Gqeberha.

Getting repair quotes you can compare

Two quotes to "fix the fridge" can mean very different jobs. Check that each one names the fault and the part, says whether the call-out fee is included or deducted from the repair, lists the refrigerant if there is a regas and whether the leak is found and fixed first, gives the parts as new, original or pattern, and says what guarantee is given, in writing, on parts and labour. For cold rooms and commercial work, compare the panel thickness, the cooling unit's capacity at your temperature, the door and floor, and the service plan. The cheapest quote that regasses without fixing the leak is rarely the cheaper one.

Frequently asked questions

Does FridgeRepair.co.za repair fridges or sell parts itself?
No. We are a free quote service. You send one request and we pass it to independent fridge and appliance technicians, refrigeration contractors, cold room builders, spares shops and refrigeration wholesalers who work in your area. They contact you directly with their prices, and you are under no obligation to accept any of them.
Is it worth repairing an old fridge?
Often, yes. A failed thermostat, start relay, fan or door seal is a modest repair on most fridges. A new compressor plus a regas costs a good part of a new fridge, so on an old, small fridge it may not pay. Ask for a written diagnosis first. See fridge compressors and fridge repair.
Why is my fridge not cooling but the light is on?
The light runs on its own circuit, so it says nothing about the cooling. The usual causes are dust on the condenser coils, a failed fan, a blocked defrost system, a faulty thermostat or start relay, or a gas leak. The fault finder on our quote form shows where a technician will look first. See fridge not cooling.
Which areas do you cover?
All nine provinces, from Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand to Durban and the KZN coast, Cape Town and the Winelands, Gqeberha, East London, Bloemfontein, Mbombela, Polokwane and the towns between them. See all areas.
